Reviews
“Ed Greenwood is a master of fantasy adventure world-building.”
“Greenwood continues to give his audience exactly what they want: [a] fast, furious read.”
“Every bit as good as its predecessors…The book’s many conflicts and their resolutions are never simple-minded, and altogether this is a most respectable wrap-up to a highly readable saga.”
“Amazing and indescribable…thrilling action…fantastic magic…fast paced with an enormous barrage of pyrotechnics…all the genius of Greenwood action with all the genius of Greenwood characterization.”
